Top Comments of this video!! :3
My perception on this video was that he was on the verge of death, and the only way for him to stay alive was to become what he is now. Right before he was changed, he realised it was not worth it. Not soon after, he was left alone by the only one he loved. By being transformed he could live nearly forever. The empty city where he lived represents his life, as though it was torn from his grasp. The movie he watches represents the memories of when he was once human and all those happy times that he no longer has. Once he was no longer devoted to living, he pulled the plug and ended his life.

My theory is that he was diagnosed with cancer (if you notice at the beggining of the video there was a pink flag that represents cancer) and he started to see days and life differently. The robot means he didn't feel anything at all, he was just lost and didn't know what to do. (Remeber robots are machines that don't stop because they don't feel and cancer patients are in a constant battle of pain everyday which makes the robot reference to make us understand that pain is an everyday thing just like a robot that is programmed to do something without stoping). After he was diagnosed with cancer he got depression and he was fighting to get out of it but when his girlfriend left him, his life was over and he lost the war with depression and cancer and gave his life because he couldn't handle it anymore.

lyrics:
Don't be afraid
Of the smoke in our grenades
It won't sting your eyes
And I'm gonna plan
Gonna go out and start a fight
I won't desert you
How come the sun don't shine on me?
Anymore
You know, you know
And how come the sun don't shine on me?
Anymore
You know, you know
Don't be afraid
Of the smoke in our grenades
It won't sting your eyes
And I'm gonna plan
Gonna go out and start a fight
I won't desert you
La, da, da, da
La, da, da, da, da, da
Oooh
La, da, da, da
La, da, da, da, da, da
Oooh
How come the sun don't shine on me?
Anymore
You know, you know
And how come the sun don't shine on me?
Anymore
You know, you know
La, da, da, da
La, da, da, da, da, da
Oooh
La, da, da, da
La, da, da, da, da, da
Oooh

I think that this was more than just his body being replaced by a robotic one. I think it symbolizes mental illness, most likely depression. It is about him losing himself and people around him because of it, just consuming him form the inside out. His girl leaving him, just broke him. It is a beautiful masterpiece and can be very relate able for many people including me. It just really makes me think. It really made me cry

Sooo underrated... the song AND the video! This song makes me think, REALLY think... people need to remember that a LOT of things they're worried about are all in their heads. Society likes to teach us to be self-conscious which causes a shit-load of pain for all parties involved. I'd say that I think that people think too much, but that, in and of itself, is ironic, huh?

Haven’t heard this song in a couple years. man. It’s 1am and I’m about to sleep and suddenly I remembered these guys. Was a nice choice to stay up a little longer to look them up. Memory lane here I come... 💙
